Jehn Kelly hai a run of bad luck In appearing ae often tofero Democratic na na tlenal con 'entlena In opposition te tlie candidate of his state. Each tlme tlie roan preferred by tlie rest of tlie New Yerk Democracy Is tlie only man who does net suit Mr. Kelly nnd his associ ates. When he nppoared before tlie last conventions at St. Leuis and Cincinnati demanding any ene but Tilden, there was room for the belief that he was sin cerely persuaded that Tllden would tnake n bad candidate, and thore were a geed many Democrats throughout the country who were In sympathy with that boiler. But when New Yerk selects a new candidate, who Is again particularly obnoxious te Mr. Kelly, thore Is Reed causofertho suspicion that Mr. Kelly is a hard man te please with a presiden tial candldate from his own state, and that In fact no one will suit him whom he does net think he can control. Clevo Cleve laud's Independence and lack of allegl ance te Tammany Hall, is probably the real reason of Its leader's antipathy te him ; and will as well account for the antagonistic votes he has found in the New Yerk delegation from ether parts of the state. The delegates leek moretothoir interests than te that of the party in the atate,and prefer a candldate from outside tlie state rather than ene or their own citizens who will net be likely in the presidential offlce te held them at their own estimate of themselves and reward them accordingly. Tlie Hroeklyn deln- gates have shown a greater degree of magnanimity. They consider that they have been Ill-treated by the governor of their party, but they think that the Interest of the party in the state requires them te support him for the nomination, and they de se. They de net wish te be regarded as fighting a New Yerk candidate because of personal grievances, when they beliove that he will make a geed nnd strong candidate. The Pennsylvania delegation is solidly for Kandall under like considerations. There are among the delegates these who think they have no reason te be personally Pleased with Mr. Itamlall's treatment of them and there are ethers who have personal preferences for ether candidates ; but they all loyally support Mr. Randall because he Is a Penn sylvania candidate, whom they Iwlieve will be a geed and Btreng one, and who Is heartily desired as the candidate by the Democracy of the state they repre sent. We cannot all have our favorites 1 for president ; and as it has come te be 1 ceusluereu tue proper tiling 10 give ine state support te a state candidate, dele gates who find in the cheice of the state, a geed man, though he may net in their judgment be the best man, may deem them selves fortunate. Sonjetiinos they are called upon te Bwallew very ugly doses in supporting peer sticks who are set up by these states, and who havu no ether recommendation ether than their state endorsement. Hut the New Yerk and Pennsylvania delegations have no such embarrassment new. Each state has a worthy candldate ; and these who strain hard nt Randall or Cleveland are in an ill-state of mind. Religion and Politics. Dr. McGlynn, of St. Stephen's ite man Catholic church In New Yerk, says very well some very true things, te an interviewing reporter, taking as ins text the charge that the Catholics would be opposed te Cleveland. All this talk about Catholie votes and and Irish votes no far an it would indicate that the votes of that creed or nationality are d iota ted by their peculiar prejudices or iutenstsas Catholic or Irish would be ene of the best justifications of Knew NothiegUtn. I, fur one, as a native citizen ef.New Yerk,um net rembs in my duty of keeping up with the times and reading the paper ; but I am at a less te knew why any Catholie cannot leek with favor or disfavor, as he pleases, ou tlie nomination of Gleveland. Even though the state executive may have opposed at any time the pretentiens toellice or te inlluence with him in his ul ministration of individual Catholic; or even if be did net see fit te appreve et Bome measure in which sonie Catholics way have been Interested, eveu then surely it would net be sufficient reason t de tcunee his administration as anti-C.Uhe-lie lie may have had the best of reasons for opposing persenal proteustous roaseus se strong as te make his opposition a duty. The same might apply te measures from which he withheld his approval. I, for one, am strongly iueliued te give te all jueu, and mere especially te these in high places, the oredit for heucst iutuntieuh until the contrary is shown. If the governor has, eveu orreucously, thought any measure unconstitutional or unjust, I shall respect him all the meto for bin honesty in adhering te his ojuvictieus in spite of polltleal and popular deraagegisra, which if enoeuraged nud emboldened te attain a oeutrolliug intluoneo, whether in the imrae of native Americanism or auy ethor national or religious preju dleee, caunet but remit te the detriment or our institutions. We can easily oencolvo a case of a Cathe He governor or president who, while most earnest and deveut in the belief and prac tice of his religion, might find it his con stitutional duty te oppose a measure that might be urged evon by a majority of his coreligionists, including eveu bishops and priests. I should llke te think se well of them myhelf ns te prusume that they would net waut him te appreve of unv measure which his eunae of duty could nut opprevo. Would te (led, oxelalmod the priest, that woeould orase aud utterly abolish all this wretohed distinction for and against nationalities and religions, and that all our peeple would merge Inte ene grand Ameileau nationality end Boek but absolute iustioe end liberty for all alike. Alter all, it Is but raore or less HeliUhness tolnslsUentronglyuponourowuBootlonal or class rights. The question with kii true wen should be, wha is best and most expedient for the common weal, aud iu this, as in all ether thlnes. honestv u ti,.. simplest and best policy. H should smely be of small aoeouut whether the "tide waiter" or the oelleotor, the scavenger or the highest elliclal of the state happened ite be of the same religion or national origin with ourselvos. Heliglen of what soever denomination is tee often but a rieh cloak for the hypocritical demagogue utterly looking in the first esseutials of the principles of houesty and truth with whieh he oleaks hlmself. That la what we call downright beiibI ble talk. It Is wrong te weigh u man's religion against his politics, or te mix the two up In any way whatever. It la wrong for peeple of any religion te criticise a public act as It afreets their religion. They should try te consider it en Its merits only. They should threw religion out of tlie scale In weighing meu and measures, and only se far as they succeed In doing se, Me they de their political duty fairly. Very many, and perhaps most people, however, are net thus wise. Anything that touches their church is llke a red Hag te n bull. People's religious prejudices must be considered in making nominations and platforms; but if there were many such wise teachers around as Dr. McOlynn, there wouldn't be se many feels In the decks. Tin: Marietta Time argues from the fact that there are four less saloons in Marietta than tliere were a year age that Judge Livingston's extra judicial oath, required from saloon and tavern keejwrs, has conduced te the welfare of tlie community. The Times argues from Insufllclent data. There is nothing te show that the three proprietors who retired from business had consciences tee tender te take the retroactive oath prescribed. Judge Livingston's atlidavit has simply Offered a premium te falsehood, and if any geed has come from it, it remains te be discovered. It is repeated that Judge Livingston might have taken the manly and direct way te step illegal liquor trallic without throwing tempta tlens te falsehood in tlie path of Ins licensees. The New Yerk Sun thinks that there is net a man of sense in charge of the Inti:i.uekni i:k just new ; but the S.n confesses that the 1ntki.lh.i:.cku has earned its esteem ; anil if se it must have done it under Its .present edl ter ; who may possibly have late ly manifested a lack of sense, though It is eeuallv possible that the delusion may be in the mind of tlie editor of the Sun. We undertook te express the opin ion that the Sun's editor was net always as mignanimeus and wise as he should be, and that he grossly erred in his state meut of Cleveland's strength before the people of his state. This tsna a signal delusion, if It was nothing worn; ; and while the editor of the 'im stands under the shadow of this indictment of his geed sense, we can well afford te patiently hear that he charges us with lack of sense in finding it. Iv Gonerat Gorden would rise in h's place and state whether he has really been murdered, a suffering uowspapcr-reading I population would rise ami call him blessed. It is au exceedingly ill wind that Wewh no eue geed. Londen hotel keeper are having a very profitable season, owing te the tlight of summer tourists from th Continent, due te the ehulcra scare.

Pitman, iu the Serth American A'mtr,lnHotue remarks en juries aud jurymen, declares that "the reaseu why be few first-class business inuii aie feuud upon our juries ii that they are excused by the courts." This is Htrictly true. Tliere is entirely tee mueh of a disposition shown by the wearers of the ormiue te accomedate substantial citizens who fee) a disinclination te jury duty It is a wrong iinpressieu te suppese that work en a jury is of a harassing and laborious nature. On the contrary, it is in ordinary easos very interesting work, aud the thought of a high duty performed should materially sweeten the toil that attends the occupation. FEKbONAli.

The kepih'h of activity about the Palmer house, Chicago, which is at present the great national political coutre, were lenevred early Monday morning. By elght o'clock the tnaiu corridors el the hotel nud thoroughfares leading te it weie tllled with great messes of ieeple, which by their very numbers made the progress of the oable ears nnd carriages very slew, ard at times well ulgh impossible. Iu the dining rooms and cafes in the vicinity of the hotel thore was au army of meu, hats in hand, waiting their turn for seats at the breakfast tables. In fact the crush has new become se great as te make oemfort a matter of only faint possibility, aud the discomfort lias been greatly iticreaed by the fact that the headquarters of the party have been cutraliz-d instead of being divided and heattered as was the case wi'h the Republican notleual convention. The crowds te be accommodated are much greater than at the Republican ceu ventleti, which fact is due largely te the presence of the great number of marehtng ergamza ions, some of which resemble a full marching regiment by their numbers, while It (.eemed prebable las-, night that all had arrived en the scene of action, thU morning witnessed the arrival el ad dttieii.tl hestn.

KicryttlriR HIdrId 011 Mew Yurk. The New Yerk delegation met at 11 o'clock and ceutiuued in session four hours. Great interest was felt in this meeting, as it was thought te have a very important bearing ou the final action et the convention. The hallway in frett of the room in wh.eh the session was held was filled with a throng of peeple auxieus te secure early tidings of the result. It was understood that, at a meeting late Sunday night, Tammany decided te insist en a two-thirds majority for the onierco ment of the unit rule, and the question wa whether that number could be mustered. Thore was a luucexeited dlscussteu, the tenor of which has net yet been learned, though rumors ei the results of the ballet ing crept out from time te time, which could net be vetltied. The following are given as the ballets taken for presidential preferences : First, or iuferraal ballet : Cloveland, 1(5 ; Flower, 2.J ; Thurman, 1 , Bayard ami Tilden, 1. Second, or formal ballet after changes : Cleveland, 17 ; Gen. Slocum, ID, Bayard, 0 ; and Flower, 1. It is under steed that the Flower moil complimented Slocum nud Bayard with a view of n inning thereby the votes of Kings ceuuty iu the convention. It is stated that the vote en the enforcement et the unit rule steed Gl teS. The struggle in the New Yerk itelega tien and the heavy vete polled in favor of the unit rule caused much eicitemeut, aud it was argued that it would ferce the Tammany opposition into a close corner, but notwithstanding what appeared te be a famous victory of the Cloveland fel lewers, very few of the leaders were will ing te concede the untrammelled eucceas of Clevelaud in the balletiug, owing te the llerea nature of the struggle and the fall ure of a portion of the delegation te corae out openly for the majority candldate. It has been acknowledged that if the caucus bad euded with the certainty that New Yerk would cast her full vete for Clevelaud, sufficient Western nud Seuth ern streugih would be at baud te make his nomination sure. The fact of a lack of unanimity in the delegation is new being used y the frieuds of the ether candidates iu pushing forward their claims for recognition. The Clevelaud inina gers, newever, are in high Joather, aud claim as u a result of the day's work that the fight has already been wen, and that it only requires the sitting of the convention te seal the victory. Mew Other Htstm Will Vute. Vermont instructed her chairman te cast the vote of that statu for Cloveland. Massachusetts is solid for Butler, but in the event of his defeat it is beheved the delegation would be divided rather evenly botween MoDenald, Thurman and Bayard. It is contended that the split iu the Ohie dolegatteu is iu a measure healed. It Is declared that McLean will be chosen for chairman unauimeusly. The ad ad hereats of Thurmau nre making this move, but it is claimed at the Bame time that Thurman has 27 votes in the delegation. new iiampsnire instructed Its delegntrs for Cloveland. The threat which has beeu vaguely made horetoforo of au attempt te defeat the uuit rule was renewed with great vigor this alternoen.aud it is new beheved that the fight will be made in the conven tion, whieh will be led by Tatnmauy, and it Is oenoodod that if it wins it will seriously complicate the situation, and leave Cleveland's opposition iu New Yerk free te act. riBhtlDK the Unit Itulr. Whlle the Flower campaign appeared te havu ended, as a result of thu caucus, his supporters contend that they aie net opposing Cleveland, nnd that if the unit rule is dutoated, these who went ever te Sloeutn will return te Flower, and make it a rallying point for his supporters gene, rally. A caucus was held in Jehn Kelly's room with the sole purpose of erganising a campaign against the unit rule. Mr. Kelly contends that the uatienal cenven tien or 1BUS ordained that the unit rule could be dispensed with auy time ut the option of any subsequent national eon oen oon velition. As a result of the caucus it is de clared that Massachusetts, Iowa, Kansas, Delaware, and ethor states have decided te BUppert the projiesition ou the deer of the convention. The Massachusetts dele gation held u meeting this nfternoeu which was addressed by Goueral Bulter, Iu which he said : " 1 will support the nomiueo of this convention, 110 matter whom he may be."
